(J7 Verse 1)
I’m on some hip-hop excellence
Step up in the jam and wack rappers make an exodus
Your now dealing with some specialist
Spitting mad effortless speaking life to the desolate
...My pen been writing long
And my penmanship is strong just like my word is bond
Don’t want to tussle with a real rhymer
Sitting up on the porch just like an old timer
Put you away like some fine China
Cuz you delicate, I’m rhyme over beats that’s prime timing
Ima go getter, hot, the opposite of cold weather
I’ma be better, not, cuz I’m making more cheddar
I just know plot thickens when you trying to make a come up
But I’ve been doing this for endless summers
I took the hard route but figured it out wrestled with doubt
Now I’m on the right path, do the math and don’t slouch
(V. Ewings Chorus)
Never thought I’d make it here that I’d still be dismayed
I work so hard to make a way
All I want to do is fly
Fly so high in the sky
(J7 Verse 2)
… I’m on an hip-hop odyssey
to do the impossibly and take the whole lottery
...Who say I rhyme all modestly?
Won’t break like pottery and certified audibly
...Exerting quality in quantity
Rock a live show yeah my stage dive’s a quantum leap
...Ain’t no one bout to catch me
I stretch deep and spit ashy for the backstreets
They ask me, how we going to get back to classy
It’s math see, so stop following the cash B
And pump on them breaks just like yellow taxi
In the past we, rock for respect and not the cash heap
...our soul worth more fool’s gold
so carry the heavy load, stay ready for heavy blows
This is all in togetherness, heart full of tenderness
Eyes wide open and give God the reverence
(V. Ewings Chorus)
Never thought I’d make it here that I’d still be dismayed
I work so hard to make a way
All I want to do is fly
Fly so high in the sky

(J7 Verse 1)
Don’t need to take it back, been the same with the delivery
All up in the place with the skill and the chivalry
Fresh with the breath and I didn’t need a peppermint
A pro, not your average Joe, make it seem effortless
You heard the name, I’m taking out any nemesis
You know you can’t mess with this, knock you off the premises
More than entertainment this is real life, we meant for this
Been rocking mics since the days before the internet
Living the dream ain’t always what is seems
All the flashing lights gleam but what about the in-betweens
Plus the bullies in the pulpit considered me the culprit
Use to feel insulted but the grind produced results kid
And
I now I’m back with the certified freshness
Rhymes be like refreshments yeah my kid says I’m the bestest
I know it’s been a long time coming
But that soundtrack bumping means J’s up to something
(Chorus)
Check the melody and rhyme [You gotta take your time
]
Move slow and not fast
[Try to learn the craft
]
Stop the non-sense [Enjoy the process]
Steady as she goes
[So you can MAKE IT LAST!]

(Intro Chorus)
Make the party live
Make you feel alive
It's going to be alright
Morning, noon, and night
Make the party live (4x)
(Randy Mason Verse 1)
I handle letters like Fedex and UPS
Put words together for the betterment of who we rep
Salute respect, the roots be truly blessed
From the Griot, to bebop, to beatbox, to Pete Rock
Now we got the light like Umi Said
With a light that's brighter than a movie set
What I jot so hot make a ruby sweat
So these techniques and tools are to be kept
Wield words like weapons diffuse the threats
I'm true BX and I ain't need a tooly yet
Uzis tecks for those who never knew these steps
So we bring it to the school to let the youth be next
To write rhymes, that do be fresh and do refresh
Rhymes, to reflect and to reset
I rhyme, while I work and through recess
I'm in too deep as the blue see gets, yes
(Bridge)
So while I walk through the valley
I'm a kick a verse so long as the Lord tarry
Shall we?
Throw your hands in the sky
And wave them side to side from New York to Cali
(Chorus)
Make the party live
Make you feel alive
It's going to be alright
Morning, noon, and night
(J7 Verse 2):
It took some time realize, that it’s so hard to be alive
and that’s why I just vocalize to make your mark like notarize
Ain’t no surprises, like the setting and when the sun rises,
Love being myself with no rap disguises
Enterprises, is my next resort I must contort,
Rhymes until they form some type of weapon meant for brutalizing
Utilize skill from the creator flip the cross fader
From here to Jamaica, rock it hard like I was Darth Vader
I’m with the rebels fighting evil on a deeper level
Can’t defeat the echo of the righteous need that bass and treble
Plus that Heavy mental, gotta get them beans and lentils
Ain’t time to settle, keep it hot like a kitchen kettle
Clinch my fist and turn up all the mic levels
Equivalent shots busting through all types of metal
I got a team vexing flexing pushing on them pedals
My man Randy Mason thank you for that something special
(Bridge)
While we keep on living
Lets appreciate everything God's given
And like this joint that's fly
I'm sending mad love from Cali to NY
(Chorus)
Make the party live
Make you feel alive
It's going to be alright
Morning, noon, and night
Make the party live (4x)

Chorus:
It don’t matter if you live or die, the truth, you got to know it
I know, it weigh’s heavy on your mind, but the truth, you got to know it, you got to know it
J7 Verse 1:
They say they like the way I’m flowing now
River Nile, spitting with a purpose like I own it now
You know the style, mumble rappers they be screaming foul
I’m gunning now, time to bring more Thunder down
Fist like the hammer of Thor breaking your spinal drown
Praise Elohim for the gift, keeping my mental sound
The world be struggling, block hot from hustling
The shot clock stops, The stock market be plummeting
The government covers it, don’t matter who be running it
The punishment felt on the people forced to trust in it
Shiesty criminals labeled democrat-republicans
Parties need a sign that says “Under Construction Since...”
The world’s out of order it’s the sign of the times
My wife and my kids weigh heavy on my mind
So I work for my people rock steady on the grind
Put a mark on the planet to inspire mankind
Chorus:
It don’t matter if you live or die, the truth, you got to know it
I know, it weigh’s heavy on your mind, but the truth, you got to know it, you got to know it
J7 Verse 2:
In case you don’t know who I be
J7 on the mic flow like an IV
Been rhyming for long stretches of time
Call me rubber-band man this is a rugged man’s jam
Didn’t come in with a plan but a mic in my hand
On purpose like a scale that’s grand, peace to my fam
Bay Area my land whether we fall or stand
My grind be relentless, you cat’s stay pretentious
I’ve been in the trenches, where the murders seem senseless
Questioning your senses, like serving a life sentence
Your soul fading out like some incense, it’s intense!
Last thing you remember was the present, no interest
How long will it take to find peace in our hearts
If we consumed by material things and body parts
We stand in the spot and cause violence a lot
But what about a new heart that can straighten out the arch?
Chorus:
It don’t matter if you live or die, the truth, you got to know it
I know, it weigh’s heavy on your mind, but the truth, you got to know it, you got to know it
Outro Bridge:
I need peace-of-mind now
I need peace-of-mind right now

J7 Intro Verse:
Here we go again, about to win it for the pennant
Yeah we all up in it, about to make that photo finish
For my independent’s, we always keep it vintage
Yeah it’s sweet scented, like when my lady makes an entrance…
J7 Verse 1:
So let’s keep the beat rolling, like the P stay patrolling
We keep them rhymes flowing like we got that magic potion
Reveal and J7 from that West Coastal ocean
Poetry in motion bout to cause a mad commotion
And the fact of the matter, is we’ll serve you on a platter
As we serving the master, one God, many chapters
Bet we’ll rock together from the here to the after
You hear the scream and laughter cause the party bout to (ACT-UP!)
The main factor, we got no time for a carbon copy
Rock you like a shoty or hottie with a hot body
Stay UNIVERSAL from the 510
Dedicated to my people like I’m DE LA SOUL
Chorus:
Strolling, we strolling
Flowing, we flowing
Going, we going
Strolling, we strolling
Reveal Verse 2:
You never heard of I, well here’s another certified banger
Cliff hanger for the summer
Westside strangler, every beats bon appetite when I run up, Still
California Dreaming while demons are creeping on a come up
But this little light of mine blinds
So they can't son us, hear the hunger
No matter what we suffer, never fold under
Resist, don't let them slip, microchips into ya wrist, Small Wonder!
Our cup overfloweth no cap, Reveal and J7 slaps
Wake you up from the slumber
Party! Obviously it's got to be God in me smarty!
2020s already done a number like anticipating the perfect wave
Cowabunga! All the way live
From the 760, ee can’t just survive
We got to thrive and watch these streets turn gold, Fa show!
Chorus:
Strolling, we strolling
Flowing, we flowing
Going, we going
Strolling, we strolling
